Product Description

Atrovent is a world known drug for the treatment of the bronchial asthma and other forms of the obstruction of the respiratory system. Its active component ipratropium bromide is a strong anticholinergic drug which directly acts to cholinoreceptor of bronchi restoring their normal work and reducing the frequency and intensity of bronchospasms.
Atrovent is a broncholytic remedy which acts by means of the relaxation of the smooth muscles of bronchi and reduction of their reflex function in response to irritants including allergic origin. In case of the systemic use of this drug the discharge of mucus is reduced from the bronchial glands and mucous membrane of the nose.

During the scientific studies of Atrovent the reduction of the bronchi reaction to smoke, cool air, and other predisposing factors has been proved. A convenient medical form allows reducing the number of the potential side effects in comparison with the use of the tablets. Therefore, Atrovent inhaler may be bought by patients who have chronic ulcer diseases of the organs of the gastrointestinal tract.

Among all its pluses Atrovent also has its drawbacks. The pharmacological action of the drug develops for a long period of time and gains its peak within 1-2 hours depending on the individual peculiarities of the patient. Due to this the use of the drug for arresting sharp attacks is impossible and the patient should have the inhaler as well as another drug for immediate cases. The therapeutic activity of ipratropium bromide is not so long as in other bronchodilating remedies and gains 6-8 hours. Due to this the patient has to use the inhaler more often within a day.
